About this file
This document contains a Standard Form 1408 Preaward Survey of Prospective Contractor Accounting System Checklist for a contractor. The checklist evaluates whether the contractor's accounting system is in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and can properly segregate direct and indirect costs, identify costs by contract and cost objectives, exclude unallowable costs, and provide necessary cost data to support pricing of follow-on acquisitions. It inquires about the accounting system's timekeeping, labor distribution, cost accumulation, cost segregation between preproduction and production, and ability to provide financial data required by contract clauses concerning cost limitations and progress payments. The contractor must explain how its current accounting system supports responses to each item in the checklist narrative section.
This opportunity is a Broad Agency Announcement from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency seeking proposals for new initiatives in nuclear detection technologies related to search, standoff detection, sensitive site exploitation, threat diagnostics and characterization, consequence management, contamination avoidance, and attribution. Proposed technology solutions must provide substantial improvements over current capabilities in areas like size, weight, power consumption, cost, compatibility, and background mitigation while meeting military operational requirements for suitability and maintainability.
